At the ER vet. They're doing an ultrasound on Catzilla starting about now. We all expect they're going to find large-cell lymphoma. #catzillaexplainsitall #seniorkitty #fluffykitty #foundinaflowerbed #fuckcancer

A fluffy brown tabby and white cat gets a drink from an automatic cat fountain. In the foreground, a dish of wet good sits untouched.

Catzilla is not doing well. The vets suspect cancer; we'll know more today. What I want most at this point is for him to know how much I love him.

A fluffy brown tabby and white cat, eyes closed and with a little bit of wet food on his nose, is lying close against his biped, a 50 year old white female.

Catzilla is almost 19. He has gotten very skinny. We suspect he is going deaf. He may be having cognitive issues. But he is without question the best snuggler in the house.

A brown tabby and white cat looks resolutely off camera to the right from his blanket nest. His nose, which is clean, is pink.

At least today the seething ball of rage has a clean nose.

A fluffy brown tabby and white cat stares defiantly past the camera. He has smears of wet food on his nose. There is a bookcase behind him.

Catzilla is a seething ball of rage with wet food on his nose.

Meanwhile, Catzilla has wet food on his nose again. Yes, face washing happens daily. Life IS pain, Highness.

Catzilla is a phenomenally messy eater, spreading his wet food far and wide (and on his nose). He's also mad at me for giving him his morning potassium. Happy Sunday!

Catzilla in his blanket nest. When you're 18 (19 next month!), you get perks. #catzillaexplainsitall #seniorkitty #cats #catsofbluesky #caturday #proofofcat

Slightly blurry close-up of Catzilla, a fluffy brown tabby and white 18 year old cat. He is in profile.

Cats got me up at 4 because Reasons. Catzilla has at least partially atoned for his crimes by cuddling up and purring. He had the best and loudest purr in the house.

Fluffy brown tabby and white cat in profile in front of a woman lying down. All that's visible of her is her mouth and part of her nose.

When Catzilla cuddles, it is not ambiguous.
